"What're you doin' here?"

The hanyou's remark broke the silence, giving Kagome reason to scoff in distaste at his attitude and give him a hit to the head. In a hissing voice she frowned and held Aimi with her other arm.

"Inuyasha!"

When only receiving an ear twitch from him, the raven haired woman made eye contact with the youkai lord. His regal stance and elegance had yet to change from the first time she'd set eyes on him. Back when the Shikon no Tama had been shattered and Naraku was still alive. Kagome remembered every icy glare and killing blow he had swung in Inuyasha's direction, never once considering that they could live in peace with one another like they did now. Despite their relationship not being...friendly, Sesshomaru and Inuyasha had come to an unofficial truce. 'I won't attack you, if you don't attack me' kind of truce. Both brothers still had their less than desirable attitudes towards one another but they had become far better at behaving civilly. As civil as Inu's could behave anyway. It also helped that they had fought side by side to defeat the disgusting thing named Naraku. By doing this Sesshomaru and Inuyasha finally came to realize that the other held power and could be a valuable ally in battle, instead of the usual struggle for dominance.

"Hello Sesshomaru."

Kagome greeted with a bow and friendly smile, her hands occupied at digging through the bag she’d brought along. The taiyoukai had come to the conclusion that his brother, as well as his human wife, were strong indeed. Naraku's final battle had shown their determination in defeating the beast and had gained his respect in an honorable way. Bowing his head only slightly toward the sitting ningen, the western lord let his eyes fall back to Rin who had conveniently busied herself with looking through the miko’s belongings. The girl had been avoiding him all day. The only logical thing to do was to return to this village where he knew her to be safest. Maybe then the whirlwind of human emotions she kept having would find some sort of outlet. It had to be a...human thing. A tug on his pant leg made him look down and to his surprise he found big honey colored eyes that blinked at him with wonder. They were immediately joined by a gigantic, gum filled smile. Lifting his eyebrow in a delicate arch, Sesshomaru watched with interest as Inuyasha's pup laughed up at him, her small ears twitching with each giggle. Rin finally lifted her gaze and hadn't noticed the quick baby until it was too late. Aimi had already scurried over to the new friend that was visiting and was determined to say hello first hand. In the midst of finding clothes for the little infant, Kagome turned to find her daughter gone. Her motherly instincts went haywire for an instant when suddenly a small growl came from where the two brothers stood. The miko felt her very blood run cold.

Inuyasha watched with a close eye but wasn't worried. The hanyou knew very well that Sesshomaru would never dishonor himself by attacking or killing a defenseless pup and one of his own blood for that matter. The hanyou had proven himself to be worthy of their father's lineage long ago. It was time, in his opinion, that Aimi met him anyway. The taiyoukai was her uncle. Rin's eyes went wide at the sound Sesshomaru vocalized, fear striking her like a fist in the gut. Her head shot to his face in hopes to gauge some reaction... he'd never sounded like that before. Inuyasha heard his growl and stayed in place, seemingly un fazed unlike the women.

"Keh, she's like her Oyaji, smart as a whip."

Sesshomaru kept his eyes on the baby, letting an almost non-existent smile grace his features. The pup gave a half growling bark back, its high yip very different from her uncle's low vibration. It pleased the youkai lord to see his father's blood being put to good use. This pup was smart, that was for sure. Especially if she went to those she considered to be strong pack members. He approved of her instinctual decision. Studying the babies features, Sesshomaru found that their father's youkai blood was still dominant, the ears, eyes and hair a dead give away. Unlike her father however, Aimi held the gentle face of her mother and the soulful gaze that kami graced Kagome to have.

"It seems the whelp at least knows Inu."

Inuyasha kept his arms crossed and flicked his ears only replying,

"Of course she does! I already said she's just like her old man."

Sesshomaru coolly responded, his tone as icy as ever.

“How unfortunate.”

Before Inuyasha could properly start a fight a certain miko made her feelings very clear. Kagome was pale faced when observing her husband just standing there as their only baby sat at the foot of a youkai who's name meant 'The end of life.' Not to mention his track record in nearly crippling Inuyasha in any way possible gave her a multitude of reasons to panic. It was quite clear the brothers let bygones be bygones, well, as best they knew how anyway. Rin had a similar expression, one of shock now more then fear. For as long as she'd known him, the young woman had never witnessed her lord as the talkative type. Especially in Inu. Making a move to pick the little one up Rin noticed Aimi's gurgle of protest. She held the small child, her eyes still wide at how Sesshomaru was acting so tolerant. 'Well, seeing that he put up with me...' She thought to herself while her lips lifted in a knowing smile. Rin was sure that she had tried his patience far more than once all these years. 'I shouldn't be so surprised.' Kagome went to Rin's side, her face still a bit white. Putting the little pink shirt on the only diapered child, the young mother swallowed back the tears of fear that were threatening to emerge. Unable to take what just happened with grace or understanding Kagome turned with a scowl to both Sesshomaru and Inuyasha.

"What in the world was that about?! Why did you growl at my baby?!"

"Oi woman it's just Inu, he was talkin' to her, calm down!"

Kagome's eyes went from scared mother rabbit, to furious grizzly bear mother in a heartbeat. When she shifted that burning gaze to Sesshomaru he simply lifted a brow and decided his kid brother was useless when it came to any explanation.

"Inu Youkai have instinct toward kin to ensure safety."

The hanyou gave a worried glance to his daughter then back to his wife before continuing,

"Kimi's just-she’s just..!"

“A smart hanyou. Recognizing the most powerful male.”

All the while Kagome took one step..then two...three step..then four, in the direction of 'the love of her life'. A threatening glare pinned him in place until Sesshomaru finished his explanation. After processing this information, the young mother let out the angry breath she was holding and blinked. Inuyasha had been to worried about the miko to acknowledge his brother’s snide comment. Rin cut in smiling.

"Oh, I thought you were mad Sesshomaru-sama..."

The taiyoukai let his gaze go to the young woman he'd been keeping as his ward for the past eight years. His golden eyes softened, his brother and the miko’s conversation now drowned out only to be replaced by the rushing water nearby.

"I am not mad, at anyone... Rin."

The young woman found it difficult to tear her eyes from his amber gaze. His tone floated to her calmly, the sensation only comparable to the finest of silk against her warm skin. Looking to the ground in shame as her thoughts started to wander, Rin felt her cheeks burn. Taking a deep breath she sighed in relief. Only moments ago she was positive her lord would be upset...and not because of the baby. Kagome decided it was time to go and gave a 'gomen-nasai' to the youkai lord. All the while scowling at Inuyasha as he followed her down the trail to the village. Sesshomaru and Rin still stood motionless, her uncertainty of whether or not to follow very evident now. After what happened the night before she wasn't sure of anything. Jaken had been mumbling obscenities by the river while trying to dry himself off. Rin looked to the old toad then up to a pinning amber gaze. A few moments went by before anything was said, the taiyoukai simply studied the girls features shamelessly until she shifted from embarrassment. Swallowing hard, Rin spoke quietly, her question hesitant.

"May I-we go Sesshomaru-sama?"

The inu youkai took a long pause after opening his mouth, yet answered eventually...

"If it means I will not be yelled at again. Then yes."
